    **Broncos at Bears** (+3.5, 46.5) 1:00

    Some eye-catching stats for Jaleel McLaughlin today, anyone watching the game got a view on how he's looking (I know he's tiny obviously).

    2024 Team Defense & Defense by Committee Thread

    No, I remember asking about this towards the end of August last year and it was promptly added but it's even later this year, seems strange with so many drafts already having happened.

    TE in the 3rd-4th? Benefits vs downside?

    I took Andrews at 2:10 in a 12-team PPR league. After the draft was over, I went back and assessed what would have happened if I had taken a RB/WR at that spot and drafted a TE instead in the 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th etc. I compared each scenario (eg taking Evans/Allen at 2.10 then...

    2024 Team Defense & Defense by Committee Thread

    Apologies if this is a dumb question or has been discussed earlier in the thread, but have FBG stopped doing the defense by committee article they used to do every year? Couldn't find it anyway.

    Gun Control Laws - Where are we really? Where to go?

    Brief interview from UK's Sky News with Ted Cruz but I think this sums up the absolute disbelief that  is widely shared about the issue of school shootings in the US. https://news.sky.com/story/texas-school-shooting-senator-ted-cruz-storms-off-over-questions-about-gun-reform-12621583 "why does...

    Weekly Waiver Wire Pick Ups - **CHAMPIONSHIP WEEK** Week 17 starts on Page 30

    Only just seen this, but to answer your question... It's a 10-team league with a 3-round draft in August each year that usually sees a handful of veterans drafted as well as rookies, the draft came at a time when everything that could have gone wrong in terms of Toney's stock had done so...

    Weekly Waiver Wire Pick Ups - **CHAMPIONSHIP WEEK** Week 17 starts on Page 30

    This was a Dynasty league which obviously changes things, but we get $300 per year and can carry over any unspent. I bid $175 on Toney and didn't get close - the winning bid was $454 from a guy who's clearly been keeping his powder dry for such an opportunity for a year or two.

    Another killing at the hands of the Police

    Sky News where I live in the UK have interrupted their Covid-19 coverage to show this video, there is widespread disbelief over here that something like this could happen in the USA, but then there has been disbelief about a lot of things that have happened over the last few years.

    RB Alex Collins, SEA

    But the reason you want the guy is because you think he's value, no? You try to assess what the drop off is between, say, the running back you like now and the running back you think will still be there at your next pick. You then compare with the corresponding drop-off between WRs/QBs/TEs...

    RB Alex Collins, SEA

    I took him at 2:11 (25th overall) in a 14-team, start 2RB, 2 WR, 1 Flex league, non PPR. In fact I went RB,RB,TE (Kelce), RB when Crowell was still there at 53rd overall, because previous experience of that league has taught me you can win without anything approaching a top WR but you are going...

    Baltimore at Cincinnati

    Ravens D is going to play a big role in a lot of people winning their league this season.

    Tennessee at Chicago

    If you gave Barkley the yardage for pass interference penalties and simple (and I mean SIMPLE) drops by his WRS, he'd have about 600 yards and 5 or 6 TDs today

    One of the best opening weekends in the NFL I can remember!!! So..What did we learn Week 1 Edition!!

    Biggest eye opener for me was Will Fuller. Not just that his stat line was good but his receptions came on a variety of routes and I don't think he's going to be a one-trick (go deep) pony at all. That said, he did get open (by NFL standards) on deep routes three or four times - he dropped one...

    Aging and Fantasy Football

    Think it's not unusual to become more laid back about FF as you get older. 20 years ago I'd devour every piece of info about 6th-string WRs or whatever , anything that had the slighetst fantasy relevance. Now, in my early 50s, I still enjoy playing but am far less intense about it, spend a fair...

    John Brown Hype Train- Not as bad of reach as I thought

    I took him at 88th overall in two drafts this week (8.04 in a 12-team PPR league & 7.04 in a 14-team non-PPR league). I like him a lot but wasn't conscious of especially targetting him.

    Don't Get Cute - Defined by What?

    At play-off time that old chestnut "dance with the one that brought you" always gets trotted out. But an equally sensible, if less snappy policy might be "dance with the one you've got most chance of scoring with".

    Who wins super bowl 49?

    It's actually 5-2 you're getting for either winning if you back them both at 6-1
